Toyota Safety Sense
The Toyota Safety Sense con-
sists of the driving assist sys-
tems and contributes to a safe
and comfortable driving expe-
rience:
WARNING
■Toyota Safety Sense
The Toyota Safety Sense operates under the assumption that the driver will drive safely, and is designed to
help reduce the impact to the occu- pants in a collision and assist the driver under normal driving condi-
tions. As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control performance that this system can pro-
vide, do not overly rely on this sys- tem. The driver is solely responsible for paying attention to the vehicle’s
surroundings and driving safely.
■For safe use
●Do not overly rely on this system. The driver is solely responsible for paying attention to the vehicle’s sur-
roundings and driving safely. This system may not operate in all situa-tions and provided assistance is
limited. Over-reliance on this sys- tem to drive the vehicle safely may lead to an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Do not attempt to test the operation
of the system, as it may not operate properly, possibly leading to an accident.
●If attention is necessary while per-forming driving operations or a sys-
tem malfunction occurs, a warning message or warning buzzer will be operated. If a warning message is
displayed on the display, follow the instructions displayed.
●Depending on external noise, the volume of the audio system, etc., it may be difficult to hear the warning
buzzer. Also, depending on the road conditions, it may be difficult to recognize the operation of the sys-
tem.
■When it is necessary to disable
the system
In the following situations, make sure to disable the system.
Failure to do so may lead to the sys- tem not operating properly, possibly leading to an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
●When the vehicle is tilted due to
being overloaded or having a flat tire
●When driving at extremely high speeds
●When towing another vehicle
●When the vehicle is being trans-
ported by a truck, ship, train, etc.
●When the vehicle is raised on a lift
and the tires are allowed to rotate freely
●When inspecting the vehicle using a drum tester such as a chassis dynamometer or speedometer tes-
ter, or when using an on vehicle wheel balancer
●When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road
●When using an automatic car wash
●When a sensor is misaligned or
deformed due to a strong impact being applied to the sensor or the area around the sensor
●When accessories which obstruct a sensor or light are temporarily
installed to the vehicle

functions of the system cannot oper-
ate: P. 2 8 1
■LTA control when operation is can- celed
When emergency driving stop system
operation is canceled, LTA control may also be canceled.
If driving operations are not
detected after the hands off steer-
ing wheel warning operates, a
buzzer will sound intermittently and
a message will be displayed to
warn the driver, and the system will
judge if the driver is responsive or
not. If driving operations, such as
holding the steering wheel, are not
performed within a certain amount
of time, the system will enter warn-
ing phase 2.
Vehicles with a driver monitor cam-
era: Depending on the type of
detection of the driver’s unrespon-
siveness, the system may skip
warning phase 1 and start the con-
trol of warning phase 2.
After entering warning phase 2, a
buzzer will sound in short intervals
and a message will be displayed to
warn the driver, and the vehicle will
slowly decelerate. If driving opera-
tions, such as holding the steering
wheel, are not performed within a
certain amount of time, the system
will determine that the driver is not
responsive and enter the decelera-
tion stop phase.
The audio system will be muted until
the driver becomes responsive.
When the vehicle is decelerating, the
brake lights may illuminate, depending
on the road conditions, etc.
After the vehicle has decelerated a cer-
tain amount, the emergency flashers
(hazard lights) will flash.
After the driver is judged as being
not responsive, a buzzer will sound
continuously and a message will be
displayed to warn the driver, and
the vehicle will slowly decelerate
and stop. While the vehicle is
decelerating, the emergency flash-
ers (hazard lights) will flash to warn
other drivers of the emergency.
After the vehicle is stopped, the
parking brake will be applied auto-
matically. After entering the stop
and hold phase, the buzzer will
continue sounding continuously, the
emergency flashers (hazard lights)
will flash to warn other drivers of
the emergency, and the doors will
unlock.

System componentsWARNING
■To ensure the system can oper- ate properly
Safe Exit Assist sensors are installed behind the left and right sides of the rear bumper respectively. Observe
the following to ensure the Safe Exit Assist can operate correctly.
●Keep the sensors and the sur-rounding areas on the rear bumper clean at all times.
If a sensor or its surrounding area on the rear bumper is dirty or cov-ered with snow, the Safe Exit Assist
may not operate and a warning message will be displayed. In this situation, clear off the dirt or snow
and drive the vehicle with the oper- ation conditions of the SEA function satisfied for approximately 10 min-
utes. If the warning message does not disappear, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not attach accessories, stickers (including transparent stickers), alu-minum tape, etc., to a sensor or its
surrounding area on the rear bumper.

Driving
■The system can be operated when
●The power switch is in ON.
●Toyota parking assist-sensor function is on.
●The vehicle speed is less than about 10 km/h (6 mph).
●A shift position other than P is selected.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are lim-ited to the areas around the vehicle’s
front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur
during use. • Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection dis-
tance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.• Detection may be impossible if static
objects draw too close to the sensor. • There will be a short delay between static object detection and display
(warning buzzer sounds). Even at low speeds, there is a possibility that the object will come within 30 cm before
the display is shown and the warning buzzer sounds.• It might be difficult to hear the buzzer
due to the volume of the audio system or air flow noise of the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the sound of this system due to the buzzers of other systems.
■Objects which the system may not
be properly detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular
attention to the following objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials that
absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections pro- jecting outwards in the direction of your vehicle
People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types of clothing.
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the sur- rounding environment may affect the ability of a sensor to correctly detect
objects. Particular instances where this may occur are listed below.
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is frozen the sensor display may be displayed abnormally, or objects, such
as a wall, may not be detected.
●When a sensor or the area around a
sensor is extremely hot or cold.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●When vehicle horns, vehicle detec-tors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, the clearance sonar of
other vehicles or other devices which produce ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
●If objects draw too close to the sensor.
WARNING
●When using steam to clean the vehicle, do not direct steam too
close to the sensors as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunction.

PKSB (Parking Support
Brake)*
The Parking Support Brake
system consists of the follow-
ing functions that operate
when driving at a low speed or
backing up, such as when
parking. When the system
determines that the probabil-
ity of a collision with a
detected object or pedestrian
is high, a warning operates to
urge the driver to take evasive
action. If the s ystem deter-
mines that the possibility of a
collision with a detected object
or pedestrian is extremely
high, the brakes are automati-
cally applied to help avoid the
collision or help reduce the
impact of the collision.
